Thank you for sharing your perspective Eric.
The fact is that we aren't the same people that we once were. Physical changes within my brain intensified personality characteristics. Seemingly, all negative aspects of myself. I cannot emotionally handle playing a primary role in my 2 young daughters (aged 7 and 5). I wish that I could handle it! Unfortunately, this quality is very common for others with tbi's (traumatic brain injuries).
These facts are unavoidable. I tried to repress my negative emotions for a couple of years. Tried to work through these things for many years, and it's just too much. I cannot blame Eric for stepping back. I presume that everyone would have done the same thing. Just a sad fact of life
Hopefully, Eric and our daughters lives will improve and they'll be happy. Maybe I'll become generally happy some day.
